If the film was created by one person, the copyright belonged to the creator. If a film was created by multiple people, the copyright may belong to multiple people or one of them. The specific ownership would depend on the relationship between the creators, the purpose of the creation, and other factors. If the film was created by a collective or cooperative effort, for example, by multiple authors or teams, the copyright may belong to the collective or one of them.

They could exercise the copyright independently according to the law, including copying, distributing, performing, renting, exhibiting, and information network transmission. If there was a dispute over the copyright of a film, it would usually be decided by the court or other judicial institutions.
The copyright owner referred to the person who enjoyed the copyright of the work, including the author, the editor, the translator, the performer, the broadcaster, and so on. Minors could also enjoy copyright, but they had to meet certain conditions. According to the provisions of the "copyright law", the guardian of the author of a minor's work under the age of 10 shall bear the copyright responsibility. The guardian shall bear the copyright responsibility of the author of a minor's work that has reached the age of 10 but has not yet completed the work or the work has been completed but has not been published or distributed or has not been legally protected. In addition, if a minor was not yet 18 years old at the time of creation, he or she would need a guardian to exercise copyright on his or her behalf. The guardian could transfer the copyright of the work to the minor after adulthood or let the minor own the copyright of the work in a reasonable way, but the relevant rights needed to be retained. It should be noted that when creating a work, a minor must abide by relevant laws and regulations and must not violate the legal rights and interests of others. At the same time, when exercising their copyrights, they also had to abide by relevant laws and regulations and not violate the legal rights of others.

These platforms would manage and operate the copyright of the work and were also responsible for providing readers with download and reading services. However, there were also some online novel copyright owners who were the platform itself, such as Yuewen Group, Feilu novel network, etc. These platforms owned the copyright of the works and were responsible for the operation and distribution.

The copyright of a movie was different from the copyright of a book. The copyright of a film or television series was usually purchased by the producer, director, screenwriter, actor, and other individuals or teams. The copyright of the work belonged to the author. This was because movies and TV series had different ways of creation and content, so the ownership of copyright was different. The creation of a film or television drama usually involved multiple participants who needed to adapt and create the script, picture, sound effects, etc. Therefore, the copyright was usually purchased by multiple individuals or teams. The creation of a book was relatively simple. The author only needed to retain the copyright of his literary work and authorized it to be printed, distributed, and sold by a publishing house or a publishing company. In addition, the copyright of movies and television dramas may have different legal provisions and treatment methods in different countries and regions. Therefore, the specific situation needs to be determined according to local laws and regulations.

The copyright of a movie script usually belonged to the author, the screenwriter, or the screenwriter team. If the screenplay had been created and had not yet been filmed, the copyright owner could exercise his rights on his own, including selling the copyright to the film company, renting it, granting others permission to use it, adapting it, and so on. If a movie script was made into a movie and released, the rights of the copyright owner would be protected by law. The film company and other copyright owners would have to pay the copyright fees and other fees in accordance with the relevant provisions of the copyright law. The copyright protection period of a movie script was usually 20 years. If the author adapted the script, made it into a movie, and released it publicly during the protection period, he could obtain copyright protection again. If the script is still protected after the protection period ends, the author needs to apply for a copyright protection certificate from the National copyright bureau to ensure that the copyright of the script is fully protected.
The copyright of a movie script usually belonged to the screenwriter or the screenwriter team, not the film company or the director. The copyright of the screenplay could protect the rights and interests of the screenwriters, including the right to sign, modify, translate, and transmit information online. If the scriptwriter or the scriptwriter team sold or authorized their script to the film company to make the movie, the film company had the right to use the script in the production process and pay the scriptwriter or the scriptwriter team the corresponding remuneration. In addition, if the script was publicly posted on the Internet, it might also lead to copyright violation. Therefore, the screenwriter or screenwriter team should take appropriate measures to protect the copyright of their script, such as marking the copyright information on the script, signing a copyright transfer agreement with the film company, etc.

In China, the use of another person's copyrights for commercial purposes must be authorized by the copyright owner or pay the copyright fee. If the name of the copyright owner has been indicated and the copyright owner has agreed to use the work, then it generally does not constitute an copyright violation. However, if you use someone else's copyright work without authorization and do not indicate the name of the copyright owner, it may constitute copyright violation. In this case, even if the copyright owner had agreed to use the work, if the interests of the copyright owner were damaged, the copyright owner would have to bear legal responsibility. Therefore, in order to avoid potential legal risks, it is recommended to obtain the authorization of the copyright owner or pay the copyright fee in advance when using the copyrights of others.
